Tangerine Juice

Synopsis

Tangerine Juice is the tale of a lonely, video shop owner (Dylan) who, whilst falling in love with a regular customer to his shop (Mary-Jane), wins a lifetime supply of tangerine juice. But when his lack of confidence gets the better of him, and he is unable to speak to her, tangerine juice seems the perfect way to drown his sorrows. Of course, as with any addiction, there are consequences. In time he turns orange. To his surprise, Mary-Jane finds this a turn on, noticing that he now bares a striking resemblance to her crush, the Hollywood legend, George Hamilton. Tangerine juice seems to be the answer to his dreams.
